[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2480230, member: 196898"] As a T2D this is a rare event that if it occurs, needs urgent medical assistance. A level of 25 (assuming mmol/l not mg/dl i.e it is a UK pizza.) is capable of causing this. Please check the symptoms in this link to make sure [URL]https://www.diabetes.org.uk/guide-to-diabetes/complications/diabetic_ketoacidosis?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIpa2CxNPG9QIVV4BQBh3O8QePEAAYASAAEgIg-vD_BwE[/URL] Apart from that, high sugar levels will make you thirsty and perhaps feeling a bit off. I have had higher levels, and felt normal, but it is not recommended. Pizza is known to have long term effects due to the fat content, and the high carb load in the base. 6 hours is pushing it and it should have gone down a bit after 4 hours, so that is why I ask you to be aware of DKA. You may have an infection that can affecrt insulin and blood sugar levles. What medication or lifestyle methods do you normally use to control your sugar levels? Most T2 meds need to be taken before or with the meal, and cannot be used like insulin to correct a bad meal choice after the meal has caused a spike. They do not do much in the way of bolus.
